kmdguy Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Hi there, I have sort of a newbie question regarding how a possible affiliate program might work for us. We are using the WHMCS billing software to handle our signups and that is working fine. We are starting to get some regular customer signups and everything seems to have processed properly. We now want to institute an affiliate program where other people can help promote our site/services and then receive a revenue sharing type payment. The WHMCS software does seem to provide for setting up all of the mechanisms for running an affiliate program. My question, is when an affiliate refers a customer to our site and then they sign up and pay, how do we handle the logistics of paying our affiliates their ongoing percentage? I mean the credit gets processed through Quantum/CDG fine and apparently gets deposited into our bank account, but is there a way that handles issuing monies to our affiliates? How do people using WHMCS handle issuing payouts to their affiliates? How would this work? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickendippers Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hi, When the affiliate balance reaches your payout level, a "Request Withdrawal" button appears for your client. Clicking this then opens a support ticket and you can assign credit to their account (and then set their balance back to 0) or send money via PayPal or cheque etc. Let me know if that's helpful and I'll add that to the wiki. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yabdab Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Is there a way to set up a mass-pay through paypal that will pay all affiliates at once, automagically? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EWH1 Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 No there is not. Are there any plans to implement a feature where the admin can choose between Credit Account or Pay By Paypal and then submit to automate this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
